• Track Listing

Not only is this new box an exciting prize for Lennon and Beatles fans—it’s also the first of its kind. Never before have John’s solo albums been collected in a vinyl set; his eight remastered solo LPs are here on 180-gram vinyl with original UK artwork. Yoko Ono and a team of top engineers mastered the albums at Abbey Road and at Avatar in NY, so you know it was done with loving detail as well as the best equipment and ears in the biz. These remasters debut here on vinyl: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band (1970), Imagine (1971), Some Time in New York City (2LP, 1972), Mind Games (1973), Walls and Bridges (1974), Rock ’n’ Roll (1975), Double Fantasy (1980) and the posthumous release Milk and Honey (released in ’84 and featuring songs by John recorded in 1980 and by Yoko in ’83). Where the original releases included postcards, inner sleeves or posters, you’ll find those here, too. No story of John Lennon is anywhere near complete without the hits and sublime album tracks you’ll find here, which follow the iconic singer, songwriter and personality across the last decade of his life: Mother; Imagine; Woman Is the Ni***r of the World; Mind Games; Whatever Gets You Thru the Night; #9 Dream; Stand by Me; (Just Like) Starting Over; Woman; Watching the Wheels; Nobody Told Me; I’m Stepping Out; Love; Working Class Hero; Gimme Some Truth; I Don’t Wanna Be a Soldier Mama I Don’t Wanna Die; One Day (at a Time); Ya Ya; Just Because; Borrowed Time, and more indelible creations by John Lennon.
